Resection of colorectal liver metastases with second-line aflibercept plus FOLFIRI: Results from the RESECTION prospective French cohort.

Aim: To evaluate R0/R1 resection rate in patients with colorectal liver metastases (CLM) treated with aflibercept plus FOLFIRI after failure of a prior oxaliplatin-based regimen in daily clinical practice.

Methods: This French, multicentre, prospective, observational cohort (NCT05178745) included patients with CLM (alone or predominant; up to 5 lung nodules <2 cm allowed) initiating aflibercept plus FOLFIRI every 2 weeks per physician choice. Primary endpoint was R0/R1 resection rate.

Prognostic value of pre-therapeutic FDG-PET radiomic analysis in gastro-esophageal junction cancer.

The main aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of radiomic approach in pre-therapeutic F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron-emission tomography (FDG-PET/CT) in a large cohort of patients with gastro-esophageal junction cancer (GEJC). This was a retrospective monocenter study including 97 consecutive patients with GEJC who underwent a pre-therapeutic FDG-PET and were followed up for 3 years. Standard first-order radiomic PET indices including SUV, SUV, SUV, MTV and TLG and 32 textural features (TFs) were calculated using LIFEx software on PET imaging.

Comparison of 4 Screening Methods for Detecting Fluoropyrimidine Toxicity Risk: Identification of the Most Effective, Cost-Efficient Method to Save Lives.

Background: Fluoropyrimidines (FPs) carry around 20% risk of G3-5 toxicity and 0.2-1% risk of death, due to dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency. Several screening approaches exist for predicting toxicity, however there is ongoing debate over which method is best.
